Polonious's Advice

My parents have always told me that keeping your friends and family close is
what keeps you sane. That even though alot of people will come and go,
there are always those few that will stay with you forever.
The funny thing i've noticed is that they're never who you think they'll be.
For instance, i have a friend i've known since 2nd grade, she's always been someone
i can have fun with. As of freshman year, i got a boyfriend whom i still love very dearly.
The funniest thing was that she, being my "best" friend, decided that after my parents got a divorce and my grandmother died in the same year, would not speak to me or even really try to make contact anymore because i wasn't trying hard enough.
You know who was there though? Yep, you bet, my boyfriend. He's been here for me, through good times and bad, and has always been my shoulder to lean on. He treats me so well and he tries so hard to make me happy. Which is already easy enough for him.

I've realized that he is my best friend, and thats okay :)

It hurts knowing that the people you think are the greatest end up showing their true colors when times are hard.
It's nice knowing that there are people who will actually talk to you at the same level you ponder life. That people will get into conversation deeply with you and all it does is bring you closer.
Ive kept Dustin close because sometimes i feel like he's all i have, but i also understand that the only thing constant in the world is change. I'm trying to get my relationship with my family strong again, its just been hard trying to adjust to all these changes.
